I tried modifying a G302 shell for it to fit, but alas the sensor sits a little too high in the shell (even with some sanding where the lens sits)

My earlier version did.

They are not the same shape. It being discontinued is a big part of that. Some feel that since shroud uses it that helps the price hike you see.

I know there was rumor of Shroud getting his own branded mouse - would be cool if it was a wireless G303 (since he's known for always using the g302/3) with some tweaks to the above negatives.

Since one of his main sponsors is HyperX, I wouldn't be surprised if he collaborates with them to create his own mouse. I always remember him saying he would want his mouse wireless. A wireless mouse that's similar to the G303 would be amazing. Now THAT would be my end game.

Haven't tried Hyperglides on my G303, but historically they've been very solid.

I haven't tried Hyperglides in the more recent years, but I did browse for skates a few years back and also tried PureTrak's, which are nice as long as you don't get the old variant.
The older variant I find has very poor glide, but it seems to be traded off with longer durability since I never had to change them aside from being disappointed with the glide.
Their HD variants seem similar to Hyperglides, but both variants really demand some wear-in before they're comfortable.

I eventually ended up with the thicker variant of Hotline Games skates for all the mice in my household. They keep a more uniform glide over its lifespan which is a nice contrast to Hyperglides, and they're extremely cheap in comparison. I buy mine from takasta on eBay, which seems to be the OG of the lot.

Now I'm just waiting for my Paraflex cables to come in. Not sure which mouse skates I should buy. Directly from Logitech or some after market ones? Any recommendations?

Happy I finally have a G303 again. Theres was no way I was paying between $200-$300 for one from amazon or ebay.

I've used G Pro Hyperglides. Works great.
